Indie Video Games aspires to be the #1 spot for everything in the Independent Video Game Community, a website that is more than just website: it is a tool. Aside from just hosting a vast directory of iOS, Droid, and PC games created by independent developers, Indie Video Games hopes to help the smallest of video game developers and producers be seen, even if you don't have any money to invest into marketing your game. We know how hard it is to compete against the big producers who have things like 'budgets' and 'marketing departments', and we're doing all we can to help you out without spending money! (If you want to spend money, you can, but you don't have to.) Everything on this website is FREE as long as you put in some work to help out your fellow gamers, earning Points to them spend on your marketing campaigns in a variety of ways. If you don't feel like putting in the work, then visit our Patreon page for other options.

We believe there's strength in numbers!
Sign up, share your work, and lend a hand to your fellow gamers!There's no reason we can't all succeed together!

How To Use Indie Video Games

Indie Video Games is NOT a website for players (although it can be as well). This site is NOT designed to be browsed. It is designed to be used.

Indie Video Games is a tool for developers, and is designed to be a useful place for all indie developers to get free marketing. You NEVER have to spend real money on this website. Ever. Not a cent. You CAN become a Patreon Subscriber and get some bonus features, but it is not required to use our site and succeed.

As a developer, your goal is to earn Points: our currency. Points are earned several ways:

1) Sharing other users games on your personal Facebook page.
2) Playing games on the IVG App, known as Doc's Arcade.
3) Becoming a Patreon Subscriber for monthly Point bonuses.

When you share another person's game, they gain exposure to your family/friends. You become their agent and help them earn more downloads. In return, we give you Points to then spend on our website to market your own game. You can spend Points to get your game in the faces of every other developer on Indie Video Games, hopefully getting them to share your game on their Facebook pages, and in turn exposing your game to their family/friends. Rinse and repeat.

Fundamentally speaking, we have turned every other developer on our site into YOUR marketing team. They work for you to share your game across a their personal network, and we pay them for you via Points. The more active you are in the IVG community, the more posibilites you have of earning downloads.

It's as easy as that.

Sign up (free), submit your game (also free), and start earning Points! Everything is free, so why not use it?
